Public bug reported: Binary package hint: bzr-builddeb
import-dsc sets author information from debian/changelog and/or debian/control as revision property as bytestrings. At least using bzr 2.0 chk_serializer's write_revision_to_string tries to encode those to utf-8, which fails if the names aren't ascii. I'll attach the crash file. You should be able to use lv2core_1.0ubuntu1.dsc to reproduce this, which you can get using "apt-get source lv2core" in karmic. If that doesn't work for some reason please say so and I'll cook up a failing dsc. I've hacked around this for now by decoding to unicode in two spots in bzr-builddeb. See lp:~marienz/+junk/import-dsc-hack for that. It's in +junk because I don't have the faintest idea if this fix is correct.
